[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you! :D

[@IMCDundee]

you can get usb 3.0 header 90 degree angles online for a few bucks. bad planning but then they never expected that big a card.

[@yakyakyakperfect]

Fire fire build, wayyyyy better than the other one

[@spockosnock1]

I got an optiplex 990 with a i5 2400 I had a spare i7 2700 and added 16 gigs of ram and its noe 20 gigs and a gtx 1650 I might get a new optiplex and buy a case and use the mobo Edit:you are so underrated but the best channel lmfao

[@crimsontechyt]

That's probably a great deal, nice job! And thank you :D

[@spockosnock1]

No probs mate

[@spockosnock1]

And I like the ascetic building in the nature

[@KaziKami]

i literally just needed this as you posted it thank you

[@nicoldengenyakeye6905]

The io shield issue can easily be dealt with in any welding shop. just lug the case there and tell the hombre to plasma torch that shield out

[@Annoyingice]

I’m gonna try and make this build

[@Hi-yf1oc]

I remember something like error or something and I had press enter just get past it man those where good old days and for some odd reason it looks satisfying to put cables and stuff into the right place and sorry I am not good at explaining things, nice video. :)

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@Hi-yf1oc]

@@crimsontechyt np :)

[@kartikkunder5620]

You can use a USB 3.0 90° MOTHERBOARD adaptor. It will easily give you room for the gpu as well👍🏽

[@PenguinBoi27]

With that would all of the ports work?

[@boorfabiola]

No way! I'm also working on a video upgrading a HP Prodesk! How coincidental!

[@crimsontechyt]

Ayy nice :D

[@traffic2422]

just for future reference, for dual channel, you want to use slots 2 and 4. also you can buy 90 degree usb 3 adapters which i think will fix your gpu clearance issue. great build though

[@uptodate7825]

Very underrated channel

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@h.i.t.m.a.n_47_911]

if there's some room between the gpu and usb 3.0 pins search for a 90 degree header

[@CallMe_Halo]

Please send me that dancing guy for your text. its so funny and makes your videos 100x better

[@TwoPros775]

I love ur videos keep up the hard work🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@leexy3395]

Aight i got all the parts like showed on the video and ready to build! But I'm missing 1 thing "The butter knife".

[@crimsontechyt]

Oof, that's a crucial part! 😔

[@shade122]

Looks like these videos get higher views than other vids

[@crimsontechyt]

The last one did, let's hope this one does too:o

[@amr_rr]

@@crimsontechytthese vids r the best in my opinion lol could u also make a vid of using the amd drivers for the 10 series card to see if there is any difference in performance

[@internziko]

The butter knife tho. Lol

[@itz__yami]

Keep it up, best regards to you from Morocco.

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you very much :D

[@XeroAlly]

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@abdo_pro151]

That's the same pc as mine! I'll upgraded like this when I have the money 💰 (currently $31)

[@MikeNoon-v9z]

Where did you get the $100 video card ?

[@crimsontechyt]

I got it second hand, 100$ is pretty average for a 1070 :)

[@Daryan_765]

Man you're best 🤩

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@Boax69]

You can reuse the cooler if you get locking nuts and nylon washers 👍 Just so save a bit and dont buy a bracket.

[@h.i.t.m.a.n_47_911]

great video as always

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@STPD3VRT]

Ignore the hate comments bro. They are either little kids or neck beards who feel like harassing you because they are assholes. Keep up the good work ❤

[@crimsontechyt]

Haha i do, thank you :)

[@RobertFixit]

butter knife is a must have…

[@crimsontechyt]

Absolutely HAHA

[@POV0]

I wanna see this done with a fishtank case please🙏🏾

[@michaelnorthcutt7628]

For The IO you can 3d Print a IO shield.

[@h3lpm4h]

I have the same the same HP PC that I got really cheap from my previous job, I might consider making some modifications now that I know is possible, thanks for bringing us this great video. ❤️ Also, can I know the name of the song from 16:31 please?

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you! :D The song is Você Não - Clara Mendes

[@h3lpm4h]

@@crimsontechyt Thank you genie.

[@inversionz8503]

wonderful

[@luisgamer2354]

Can you do a video upgrading an optiplex without a case? (Edit, i know it will be frustrating but please a lot of us i think want one)

[@lqch]

I love you

[@MIrophage]

how about you try modding the original case making it look better and more modern

[@TRJ_BAKED]

The fact that this is better than my main pc 💀💀

[@crimsontechyt]

The struggle is real 😔✊🏻✊🏻

[@Juan-ffsstfu]

why did u replace the case? i thought it would be like a sleeper pc

[@crimsontechyt]

More airflow, and just overall better looks :)

[@loudspeakertestsmorebyaida3804]

Why didn’t you reuse the case speaker?

[@agumnandof]

I have this Pc and i using it for gaming my pc is Hp ProDesk 600 G1 TRW Intel core I5 4570 RAM 8 Ssd 128 gb Hdd 500 gb Hdd 250 gb No GPU [ Do you know which GPU supports my PC? ] I need it please help me , thanks you

[@crimsontechyt]

Without changing anything about the rest of the system, you could get a GPU that doesn't need extra PCIe power. The most common GPU in this category would be a small GTX 1650, but i think there are stronger cards out there that dont need a 6+2 pin cable.

[@agumnandof]

@@crimsontechyt thank you sirr

[@junko-22]

Nc vid it was fun to watch

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@ashrafgamingplus]

Can u do this on HP compaq 6005 pro? :D

[@crimsontechyt]

If i can get my hands on one, i will :)

[@sofiacastanolopez]

for someone who does a lot of rendering and 3d modeling with my laptop, but I also take my laptop with me all the time, would you recommend the G14 over the G16 (2024) when it comes to performance/portability?

[@markkarpoff8737]

Classy prentation

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you :D

[@aliS23473]

Nice video. One question is there any connector to my hp case it is g4 400 I need to upgrade my psu. It uses 4pin+4pin Any idea guys??

[@crimsontechyt]

I would just look up your model with "PSU adapter", and see if there are any 24-pin adapters for your model :)

[@aliS23473]

@crimsontechyt thank you so much, and nice video by the way. I have been looking for many months. I don't find any adapter. IT USES 4+4+6 PIN. I don't know if there is any solution to upgrade my PSU.

[@aliS23473]

@crimsontechyt it is g4 400 Mt business case Ram with high speed will not be supported 3200MHz, I guess?? Or i can be

[@crimsontechyt]

Thank you! :D The small form factor PCs are a bit harder to convert, since they have very proprietary screw positions, cables, and even power states. I couldnt find an adapter right away on google, but aliexpress might have them? That 6 pin is only used to power the DVD/SSD drives, so i wouldnt worry to much about that. One of the 4 pins powers the CPU, which is standard, and then you'll need to find a 24-pin to 4-pin adatper to power the motherboard.

[@aliS23473]

@crimsontechyt true 👍🏻 the only problem is the one 4 pin adapter The other one is for cpu fan And the 6 pin for the dvd. In aliexpress, all of them are 6 pin connector.

[@hammerdown717]

How do i do the stress test '

[@crimsontechyt]

I run Cinebench R23 Multi-Core stress test and Furmark at the same time :)

[@ritualmid]

i have a optiplex 3040 with 2 ram slots and n o m.2 drive slot, I have a i7 6700 and rx 580 in it with 16 gb of ram, I want to get a new case for it without upgrading the motherboard, psu or anything else really except the case, What should i do?

[@crimsontechyt]

It should be completely possible, but you might lose your front I/O functions, due to the connectors being proprietary. You could get an adapter for it though :)

[@ritualmid]

@@crimsontechyt What else do you think i need? I need to use all the fans in the computer aswell]

[@CallMe_Halo]

Please do Optiplex 7020!!

[@crimsontechyt]

I did a video for the 7040, it should be about the same :)

[@CallMe_Halo]

@@crimsontechyt I am interested in case swapping my old optiplex 7020 into a ATX case but dont really know what parts support what, i know basic stuff like how to build one and what they do, i just dont really know what supports other parts thats why im asking for a guide. Thanks ill check out the video.

[@shade122]

Whats that pc cooler you used

[@crimsontechyt]

The Xilence I200

[@anthonydelamare8612]

You can add more ram in this

[@rebelous]

Where you find good sales for pc's?

[@crimsontechyt]

Just my local second hand market apps :)

[@Finland-676]

You have same case What ai have

[@kurtiswagner6949]

Why a 400w psu with a 1070😭😭 it’s gonna explode bro

[@crimsontechyt]

A 1070 only uses 150W MAX, and the rest of the system sips power. It did fine in the stress tests too :D

[@Digger-_-]

what do you do with the PC?

[@crimsontechyt]

I try to sell them on the side if i can :)

[@nelchan2421]

better without a tempered glass sidepanel

[@harrislawrence5250]

RAMs in slot 1 and 3? still dumb on you. 2 and 4 better

[@crimsontechyt]

Both configurations have dual channel support, and lack XMP. The difference between the two hasn't been an issue (on 99% of boards) since like a decade ago

uhhh i think you could fit some gpu's i think the 1650, 1050, 1030 and for amd maybe the RX 550 and RX 560
